For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Gruyere, Parmesan, or Monterey Jack. To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, blind-bake it for 10 minutes before adding the filling. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
